LikeLocal – Kokdong Village, Krong Siem Reap

Community-based tourism is at the heart of LikeLocal, and our partnership over one month consisting of four meals made me realize why the world is so obsessed with Cambodia. Hospitality is a fundamental core of the Khmer People.

Ms. Srey Lack invited us for an early lunch. Ms. Lack prepared grilled fish, known as snakehead fish, with prahok chhav and climbing wattle omelet. They are a very tight-knit family living in Tikvil Commune, close to the Siem Reap International Airport.

LikeLocal – Krong Siem Reap

It’s a blistering hot afternoon in Siem Reap, and we are en route to another local food experience with LikeLocal. The city is in full prep mode for the Khmer New Year, and most roads are closed for the festivities.

I’m sitting in the back of a tuk-tuk traveling through the streets during Songkran Nights. In its most simplistic form, Songkran Nights include everyone known to humankind getting a water gun, hose, or bucket and filling the streets with water fights. No one leaves dry. Also, don’t forget the baby powder. You will be soaking wet and covered in baby powder.

LikeLocal In Pouk District, Siem Reap

It’s a beautiful Wednesday morning as we head to Pouk District for another LikeLocal Cambodia unique travel experience. The streets are bustling with locals coming and going as everyone prepares for the annual Khmer New Year.

Just after six on a Saturday morning, I find myself standing alone in Wat Bo Street, Siem Reap, Cambodia. The wind is howling hot air with a cool temperature of 27 degrees Celsius. Familiar faces pass as the hustle and bustle of the small tourist town prepares for the day. This is it… This is what I’ve always wanted… To tell the stories of Others.
